Storybook Cottage Versus A Tornado. This past Tuesday night/early Wednesday morning a tornado touched down where we live. The after effects were a bit messy but I am SO thankful to say that our beloved Storybook Cottage came through, although she’s a bit battered and bruised. Our guardian angels were truly working overtime. Storybook Cottage Versus A Tornado As I left work early Tuesday evening I had remarked to a Kristine, my internship mentor, that “It feels like tornado weather.” Once ... View the Post
Do What You CAN’T
I like to think that I am the queen of making do. Doing what I can, with whatever I have, wherever I am. It’s really not exceptionally hard. Anyone can do it.

And In The End…
And In The End, there will always be a question as to who really rescued whom. Two weeks ago we shared that our beloved Franzie was ill.

Winter Bliss Organizing and Decorating
Happy first Monday of the new year! This post covers Winter Bliss Organizing and Decorating. Winter Bliss Organizing and Decorating In the days after the holiday, my formal dining area became the dumping ground of Christmas past. Stacks of dishes and half dead flowers were some of the things you could see. What you couldn’t see was even worse.
